Democrats shut down government

[friend of]

Nope. It's the truth, though I'm confident you don't know it, because you haven't looked into it beyond what the clowns on Fox and Phonies said.

You think the people who lick Donald Trump's shoes care about you, your loved ones, or America at all?

They clearly do more than the Democrats. At least they getting rid of illegal alien criminals

Senate Democrats vote to shut down government over Republican spending bill

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries get their caucus to hold fast against a continuing resolution written by Republicans

Democrats still shutting it down

Good day,

The unions have dumped on the democrats, and the Washington post editorial dumped them as well.

The democrats are using the misery of the American people as leverage against the American people...

Let the infighting begin... Chuckie's in trouble

No, just the Democrats

Trump is quite the mess, take an international census poll.

Please. He's literally dominating the world for America. He's a strongman.

And after 4 years, what happens to America?

Hopefully another Republican president. I can see that happening.

 

[Gregory Thompson]

Hopefully another Republican president. I can see that happening.

After the last Trump term, all the nations who held their tongue during that 4 year period decided "to act in response" after it was over.

None of the up and coming candidates can pull off a Trump.

So what do you think will happen to America?

 

[friend of]

So what do you think will happen to America?

I'd prefer not to think about it.

They didn't. Republicans did. Thanks for playing.

I have lost all respect for you.

The pressure on the democrats is building at a fever pitch:

Largest US airlines raise pressure on Dems to 'pass a clean CR' and end shutdown

Major U.S. airlines are calling on Congress to reopen the government as TSA workers and air traffic controllers are continuing to work without pay.

www.foxbusiness.com

Snip- "The four largest U.S. airlines are now adding pressure on Democrats to "pass a clean CR" and reopen the government as Transportation Security Administration (TSA) workers and air traffic controllers are going without pay. "

I'd prefer not to think about it.

I live next door, so I hope it goes well.

I have lost all respect for you.

I'm sorry that you feel that way, but I can't ignore the things going on in my own country. I can't simply ignore my conscience. I can't turn a blind eye toward evil. I can't pretend I don't see what I see and know what I know.

My government is shut down, people aren't getting paid, and millions of my fellow countrymen are going to go without food because the Republicans want to throw a tantrum.

They want to rob my neighbors of healthcare, and because Democrats refuse to bow and kneel to their demands, they have shut down the government, and are now millions of people are going to suffer.

There's a dictator running my country right now, and using federal agents as his own private police force--they are marching in the street, they are assaulting men, women, and children, including Christian clergy. They are assaulting the disabled, they are illegally detaining my neighbors, my fellow countrymen, citizens, legal residents, immigrants (legal or undocumented, it doesn't matter).

My country is on fire right now.

I can't afford to play nice with people who want to see my neighbors erased, who want to purge America of people based on the color of their skin, or because of their political views.

This isn't politics. This is good and evil. This is a battle, and it's a war fought against fascism in America, against fascists.

If I lose friends, that's fine. At the end of the day all I can do is abide by conscience, and trust in God's mercy. I do not believe it is acceptable for a Christian to be on the side of tyranny and oppression. My God came down and walked with prostitutes, associated with losers, and commanded I welcome the foreigner without reservation.

The Incarnation means I am morally obligated to side with the oppressed, not the oppressor.

This is a lie.

Undocumented immigrants are not, and never have been, given healthcare. These are MAGA lies. What MAGA wants is to deny healthcare to American citizens, and Democrats are refusing to give in. As a result, Republicans are holding millions of Americans' food assistance hostage.

That's the reality.

Why on God's green Earth would they want to do that?
